| description | Being able to equally benefit from the advantages and amenities of a civil life in the best way is considered as one of the indispensable rights of all citizens and residents of a city. Physically disabled and handicapped people and veterans are a part of the society whose needs must be satisfied disregarding their physical health conditions; therefore, tailoring various urban environments and utilities to the use of the disabled people is very crucial. In this article, by surveying disabled people and by employing field study and using 6 criteria and 46 sub-criteria, the proportion of different urban environments and utilities in different areas of Dogonbadan town to the needs of the disabled according to the established standards is investigated. Data are analyzed using such statistical methods as TOPSIS algorithm and T-test and employing SPSS software. Results indicate that regarding urban planning and designing standards specific to the disabled, no sufficient and suitable measures are taken in Dogonbadan town and none of the evaluated spaces and uses in this town have a suitable customization for the disabled in between various areas: parks and green spaces, educational spaces, libraries, a sports hall and passages and in between urban areas 4 and 5 are worst. In this regard, every urban area is prioritized for customization in each criterion according to a ranking of urban areas using the criteria under study. |
